I couldn't get into the disc world books much, but I loved the Wee Free Men series. Had hoped he would write more of them. A great loss.

Sir Terry's witches are pretty wonderful.
I know there were several of his witches in the WFM books, and yes, they are really fun. I'll have to check that one out. Thanks!
